Can we just stop and think
For a second that felt like hours
For the pain that is hurting more
Can I just stop and never wake up
I thought I was home today
But I put myself aside
Always put everybody else's first
And bury my sanity down
Thought of everything I've lost
From happiness to the gloomy Sunday
From being in love to swollen eyes
Where did it all go?
I keep looking in between the crowd
Tried to fix what makes me a bored
Before the lens could chase my emotion
Before they questioned my lifeless eyes
I find it really hard to keep trying
When everything I touched started dying
I would never speak my mind
To anyone but a mirror in the aisle
I told him
About things that he might wanna change
About the future that might never change
When will it end?
Can we just stop and think
For a life that lost its sparks
For the pain that never leaves
Can I just stop and never wake up
